Untitled Document  |  |  | |  | | | Apple Powerbook 100 (1991) | | | | | | | | All laptop fanatics have to thank Apple for this wonderful gadget released way back in 1991, which set the trend for all future laptop designs.According to Mobile PC magazine,
"Until Apple unveiled this 5.1-pound machine, most portable computers
were curiosities for technophiles with superior upper-body strength.
But the PowerBook 100's greatest and most lasting innovation was to
move the keyboard toward the screen, leaving natural wrist rests up
front, as well as providing an obvious place for a trackball. It seems
like the natural layout now, but that's because the entire industry
aped Apple within months." |
